Looking very likely we get Miami in first round

[SEMO 6,811]

There is still a chance for cinci to get the 1.  If we lose one more and cinci beats buffalo, all three of us could finish at 13-4, and cinci would hold the head to head advantage over both of us.

[West 6,713]

....and do not think Cinci does not know this....

Buff vs Cinci is the game of the year IMO.  They both beat KC

yea I wish I could see it a shame it's on MNF

There's a reasonable chance that the Chargers could replace the Ravens as the #5 seed.  That means they would get #4, Jags or Titans and probably advance.  Bengals, Bills, Chargers, Chiefs in the final AFC four.  That's how it should be, the best four remaining.

So basically, whoever we play, if we keep this offense up, we lose first round.  That is, unless we get the bye, then second round.  Sorry, I just don’t see the Chiefs doing much these playoffs.  

[dhitter 1,424]

Chiefs have been underwhelmingly good if that makes sense. You don't win 13-14 games in the NFL unless you are a good team. But the turnovers....playing to the competition...young secondary giving up too many plays. And even though our front line has a lot of sacks and pressures....there are games (if you go back and look) where they just don't move the needle. Cincy scares me.

The bitch in all of this is the Indy game. Had Jones not been hit with "he said mean word" flag we would be the top seed.

Fucking zebras

True, but the chiefs put themselves in a position where a flag could alter the outcome against an awful team that had no business being close.  I’m not big on “deserved to lose games” but the Chiefs deserved that one, and it really hurts now.

That game was won. It was our ball. Then the ref got offended. I mean, for WORDS.

Was it any worse than the strip sack, recovery, .......Oops, roughing the passer call a few weeks later.  That was the game.  Two bad calls on Jones may keep the Chiefs from having home field.  Refs have been terrible this year.

Absolutely, but there’s no earthly reason that awful colts team should’ve been within 14 points of the chiefs at the end of that game.

Probably.  But bengals on the road Monday gives us a punchers chance. 

Bengals MUST beat buff because they got Balt hot on their trail and hungry. If they beat buff I think they have the tiebreaker on Balt should they lose.

[West 6,713]

They Beat Buff and KC stumbles....The Bengals can get the bye.

Home game for the Bengals....they need a W

[oldtimer 8,686]

what happens in a tie?

[jgriff3029 26]

According to the ESPN playoff machine, if the Bengals and Bills tied, KC would be the number one seed if they win out, Bills would be 2 and Bengals 3.  If the Bills and Begals tie and end up with the same record, it looks like Cinci would have the tie breaker.

[azchief21 5,278]

We win out. CINN beats BUFF then BALT beats CINN, we're #1, correct?

Cinci has lost 4.  If we both win out, we get the bye.

TUA TAGOVAILOAQB, MIAMI DOLPHINS

NFL insider Jonathan Jones reports the NFL Players Association is investigating the Dolphins' handling of Tua Tagovailoa's Week 16 concussion. 

It will be a joint investigation with the NFL. Tagovailoa played the entire fourth quarter after slamming his head on the turf, then showed signs of a concussion on Monday. McDaniel said his review of game film from Miami's loss to the Packers made him question whether Tua had suffered another brain injury -- at least his second of the season, possibly his third. The team's handling of Tua's concussions this season have raised serious questions about whether the Dolphins have prioritized their quarterback's health. This is the second time the NFLPA has looked into how the Dolphins handle brain injuries. It's possible we won't see Tua under center again until 2023.

 As it should I did watch the game bt cant say I saw his head smack the ground that being said his play fell off soo dramatically him having a concussion is certainly in the cards and the Phins should be held accountable.  I see where many ex NFLrs have mentioned  that he should stop playing now, maybe he should take Luck's and other's approach and get out while there is still time.

If the Chiefs win out, they can only be #1 or #2.  If Cincy wins out and the Chiefs stumble, they are #1.  Bills win out, they are #1.  The Chiefs have the easiest schedule but it all depends on the Bills/Bengals game.  The fifth and sixth seeds are also interesting.  The Chargers could move up to #5 and draw the Jags or Titans.  If the Chiefs make #1, they would then likely get the Chargers for the third time this year.

If KC is #1 they get a bye.
